Born in Adelaide, Peter Drew’s artworks have been exhibited at major arts institutions around Australia, though his most prominent work is installed on city streets. He is best known for his Aussie poster series, featuring archival photographs of individuals bound up in the ‘White Australia Policy’; a piece of now-defunct legislation aimed at restricting non-white and particularly Asian entry into Australia.

“I like to exhibit my art on the street because public space is a great equaliser, and an ancient forum,” Drew says. “When you address the public through the street you’re entering into a tradition that emphasises our fundamental freedom of expression, over the value of property. I enjoy examining our collective identities and my aim is always to emphasise the connections that bind us, rather than the fractures that divide us.”

Tour de France 2026 stage one: race begins with team time-trial in Barcelona – live

‍♂️ Race begins with 19.6km route through Barcelona
‍♂️ Stage-by-stage guide | Team guide | Email Andy

Emailing in, James Beardon does not think much of this new-fangled format:

“Not sure about this TTT. I’m not a fan of the ITT but TTTs are usually pretty entertaining just watching teams trying to stay together. The use of individual times just makes it an ITT, not a TTT – they just happen to go off at the same time. Seems a bit pointless to me (but it’s the Tour so of course I’m watching it!) Any thoughts or am I just being grumpy?”

Thanks James. My take: on the contrary, I think it is essentially a normal TTT aside from the last 4km. I fully expect most teams to stay together for the flat, first 15km and treat it in the manner we are accustomed to.

David Powell writes in remarking that it is hot in Barcelona, offering a charming selfie of an Englishman in the afternoon sun.

Elon Musk posted twice as often on UK race and immigration as about SpaceX in IPO run-up

Guardian analysis of X feed shows how keen world’s richest person was to air his views and ‘interfere’ in British politics

Elon Musk posted about race and immigration in the UK on his social media network X twice as often as he did about SpaceX, which he also owns, in the run-up to the aerospace and AI company’s initial public offering.

A Guardian analysis of Musk’s posts, replies and reposts between 31 May and 12 June has shown the extent to which the social media activity of the world’s richest person, who lives primarily in the US, has focused on UK politics.

Overcrowded and underfunded: Trump’s cuts to national parks threaten the US’s ‘best idea’

This summer, Yosemite national park has been rife with traffic jams and throngs of visitors. Can these popular national treasures withstand a future of strained resources?

On a crisp, sunny morning at the end of June, dappled light filtered through the canopy of an ancient grove of giant sequoias, casting a tranquil backdrop for a mule deer as it ambled across the trail. Families from around the world gazed up at the towering trees in awe, speaking in hushed tones and different languages.

Experiences like these draw more than 4 million people to Yosemite national park each year. But as an increasing number of visitors come to take in the dramatic vistas, camp under the stars or feel the mist cascading off its thundering waterfalls, Yosemite’s landscapes are being pushed to their limits.

In Utrecht komen rebellerende gelovigen samen, juist nu het Vaticaan ze niet meer wil

Omdat de Priesterbroederschap Sint Pius X tegen de wil van de paus nieuwe bisschoppen inwijdde, werd de broederschap geëxcommuniceerd. Bij de eerste mis nadien, in Utrecht, komt een groepje aanhangers samen. „Ben ik nu ook geëxcommuniceerd? Dat weet ik niet eens.”

Japan - Matsuyama

A Matsuyama il cielo promette pioggia, ma l’ingresso della Gintengai non lascia dubbi su dove andare. Lo shotengai è una risposta semplice e concreta: negozi, passaggio coperto, luce artificiale e vita quotidiana che continua anche quando il tempo cambia. Non è un posto da guardare da fuori. È fatto per entrarci e camminare.

松山の空は雨を予感させるが、銀天街の入口は行き先をはっきり示している。商店街はとても実用的な答えだ。店があり、屋根があり、明かりがあり、天気が変わっても日常が続いていく。外から眺める場所ではなく、中に入って歩くための場所だ。

In Matsuyama, the sky is ready for rain, but the entrance to Gintengai makes it clear where to go. The shotengai is a simple, practical answer: shops, covered passage, artificial light, and daily life continuing when the weather changes. It is not a place to look at from outside. It is made to enter and walk through.

Vandaag heb met PeakPing ontdekt dat van de achterdeur van het huis naar de poort van de tuin een verval heeft van 17 meter. Het is vijftig meter zoals de kraai vliegt. Dat betekent volgens mij een gemiddeld stijgpercentage van 33 procent.

Het laatste nieuws van vandaag over Rotterdam, Feyenoord, het verkeer en het weer in de regio Rijnmond

Feyenoord zeer eenvoudig langs FC Dordrecht in eerste oefenduel van nieuwe seizoen

Feyenoord heeft in de eerste oefenwedstrijd in de voorbereiding op het nieuwe seizoen met ruime cijfers gewonnen. Het team van Giovanni van Bronckhorst had geen kind aan FC Dordrecht en won aan De Krommedijk met 6-0.

Syrische huurmoordenaar Muhammed Mamo opgepakt in Nederland, zat hier lange tijd ondergedoken

Hee kijk, een dubbele huurmoordenaar. Of eigenlijk een dubbele dubbele huurmoordenaar, waarmee we iemand bedoelen die eerst wordt ingehuurd om twee mensen te vermoorden in Turkije en vervolgens naar Nederland reist om hier eventueel mee te dingen voor een huurwoning. De politie heeft de voortvluchtige Syriër Muhammed Mamo opgepakt, die in Turkije verdacht wordt van een paar bloederige liquidaties in badplaats Bodrum. Die moorden heeft hij twee jaar geleden samen met 4 anderen (één van hen hierboven afgebeeld) gepleegd, waarna al snel rondzong dat Mamo in Nederland zou zitten maar desondanks kon hij daar blijven zitten tot hij afgelopen april werd opgepakt. Mamo zou in Groningen zijn opgepakt, maar het OM wil niet zeggen waar hij precies zat, laat staan waarom daar er zolang kon zitten. De rechter moet nog besluiten of deze vrolijke Syrische jongen mag oprotten naar Turkije of Syrië. Was gezellig. Waar op de Schaal van Sargentini valt deze casus eigenlijk precies?
